Fang Xin suddenly stood up, his eyes shooting out two fierce beams of energy, startling the brown bear into a sudden stop.
One hand is shaped like a claw, and a long staff flies in from afar.
The moment you grasp it, a terrifying force fills the long staff, making a buzzing sound.
"Beast, die!"
As the long stick fell, the brown bear's eyes were filled with fear, but it didn't move an inch, watching the stick land on its chest.
Boom!
The brown bear's sternum was fractured, and it cried out in pain.
Fang Xin's eyes flashed like lightning as he rushed out, wielding a long stick in both hands, and brought it down.
The brown bear raised its paw to block the attack and then bit at Fang Xin.
The gaping maw came too fast; fear flashed in Fang Xin's eyes, and he dodged it with a series of quick movements.
roar!
The brown bear's eyes turned blood red, and a strange aura rose from its body, suppressing Fang Xin's power.
A giant bear paw came down.
Fang Xin immediately tried to dodge, but his feet felt incredibly heavy, making it impossible for him to move or even simply bend his body slightly.
"Alas, in the end, death is inevitable."
Disheartened, he made no attempt to defend himself, watching as the bear's paw came crashing down on his head.
The moment the bear's paw touched the hair, a cold glint pierced through it.
"Woo, woo!"
The brown bear, in pain, flinched and fear flashed in its eyes, then quickly retreated.
Fang Xin then realized what was happening, grabbed his dagger, and rushed forward, yelling, "Die!"
The dagger struck its head precisely.
The brown bear slowly collapsed, struggled a couple of times, and then died.
"Who?" Fang Xin turned around warily, holding a bloodstained dagger in his hand.
Li Tianyi was standing still, looking him up and down. "Fang Xin, right? Fang Yi asked me to come."
Upon hearing his loved one's name, Fang Xin's eyes reddened instantly, and he slowly lowered the dagger. "How...how is she?"
"She's fine."
Li Tianyi gave a brief overview of the situation from the apocalypse to the present.
"I never imagined that in just over a year, Earth would have become like this. Sigh." Fang Xin looked up at the sky with a bitter expression. "As a soldier of the Dragon Kingdom, I have failed to protect my country and have truly let down the martyrs."
He turned around abruptly, "Take me away. I want to kill all those enemies who dare to covet the Dragon Kingdom."
"Okay, let's go!"
Li Tianyi lifted his left foot, and a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind: "There is a great opportunity here!"
A small dot suddenly lit up on the right sloping surface, and then rapidly grew larger.
"What is this?" Fang Xin asked, completely bewildered.
"Your good fortune," Li Tianyi said with a smile, stepping aside. "Just wait patiently!"
The point of light rapidly grew larger, eventually transforming into a portal.
Let's go!
Fang Xin felt a little uneasy as he followed behind.
The void twisted and the two appeared in front of an abandoned house.
The surrounding area looks very old and is severely weathered.
Just as they were about to investigate, a shrill scream came from afar.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
Li Tianyi frowned slightly and gripped the laser gun tighter.
Suddenly, a young woman, dressed in tattered clothes and covered in blood, rushed out of the alley.
Several burly men with sinister smiles followed behind him.
"Run, run fast, quack quack!"
"Scream louder, the louder you scream, the more excited I get."
A group of burly men rushed over as if they hadn't seen the two of them.
Fang Xin's military spirit was fully ignited. He snatched Li Tianyi's gun and pulled the trigger.
A laser beam pierced the chest of the burly man at the front.
"you?"
"Scumbag, die!"
The gun barrel moved continuously, and each of the strong men had a bloody hole in their foreheads. They slowly knelt down, convulsing.
"Girl, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
Fang Xin approached.
The woman was so frightened that she didn't trust anyone at all, waving her arms wildly, shouting, "Don't come any closer, don't come any closer!"
"Okay, okay, I won't come over." A hint of helplessness flashed in Fang Xin's eyes as he retreated to his original position.
Li Tianyi quickly took out medicine and food from his system space and threw them over, saying, "Here you go."
He looked at Fang Xin and said, "Let's go."
The woman's eyes lit up as she looked at the food on the ground. She wanted to grab it, but hesitated because she was worried that the person in front of her had ill intentions.
The two gradually drifted away.
Once the surroundings quieted down, the woman grew bolder, carefully picked up the bagged food, eagerly tore it open, and began to chew it heartily.
As she swallowed the first mouthful, two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks, and she began to sob.
The crying grew louder and louder.
With Li Tianyi's current strength, it's impossible for him not to hear. He frowned slightly and sighed, "Another pitiful person."
Since Fang Xin came in, his understanding has been constantly refreshed, but there are still many questions he can't figure out.
"Xiao Tian, can you tell me why there are people here?"
"Because we're already inside a secret realm." Li Tianyi paused for a moment. "You'll understand if I put it this way. You've played online games, right? We're like entering a game instance now, understand?"
"Is this... really that fantastical?" Fang Xin stared wide-eyed.
"There are many things that can't be explained in a short time. Just remember: the world is different now than it used to be, and all sorts of things can happen."
"I've got it." Fang Xin turned to look at the woman stumbling towards him, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes. "Please help her, okay?"
Li Tianyi didn't speak, but nodded.
Fang Xin stepped forward, "Miss, are you alright?"
The woman was frightened, curled up, and said in a trembling voice, "No, it's nothing."
Suddenly, the woman knelt down and began kowtowing repeatedly.
"Girl, please get up, please get up!" Fang Xin wanted to help her up, but his eyes caught sight of the girl's tattered clothes, so he quickly turned his head away.
Li Tianyi immediately pulled out a set of night clothes from his system space. "Put these on!"
The woman quickly took it and put it on.
"Xiaoxue thanks you both, my benefactors." Yingying bowed.
Only then did the two men realize that the woman in front of them was only eighteen or nineteen years old, with an oval face, beautiful features, and a perfectly proportioned figure.
Li Tianyi, a man who has seen countless beauties, was stunned even by this woman, which shows just how exceptional she is.
Coming to her senses, she frowned immediately. "Xiaoxue, why were you being chased?"
Xiaoxue's eyes immediately reddened, and her voice became choked with sobs. "North of Datian Village, there is a Liuyun Village. The village chief, Shanbao, took a liking to me. I refused to submit even at the cost of my life, so they tied me up and took me back to the village. I escaped under the cover of night."
Later, at the foot of Liuyunzhai Mountain, I encountered those same people again. I tried to escape, but I couldn't.
"If you hadn't arrived in time, I... I would have been violated by them, boohoo..."
The expressions in Li Tianyi and Fang Xin's eyes became complicated.
Eye contact: I tested her, and this woman has never practiced martial arts. How could she possibly escape from the bandits' stronghold with her abilities?
Her eyes responded: "Also, those burly men I killed before, they were obviously trained fighters. They could easily catch her."
Fang Xin nodded, gripped the dagger tightly, and moved closer.
A dagger was instantly pressed against her snow-white neck. "Speak, who are you? And what is your purpose in approaching us?"
Xiaoxue was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she opened her mouth but couldn't make a sound.
"You'd better answer honestly, or I have plenty of ways to make you talk." Li Tianyi held out a handful of gleaming silver needles.
"Speak?" Fang Xin clamped her hands.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!" Xiaoxue cried, tears streaming down her face. "Let go, let go!"
Fang Xin could tell that she wasn't faking it, but was genuinely in pain, and feeling a little sorry for her, he slowly let go.
Xiaoxue gathered her thoughts and said, "I know what you're suspecting."
As soon as she uttered the last word, she darted away like a slippery fish.
When you finally see her, she's already ten meters away.
"What I just used was my family's secret technique, 'Golden Snake Flash'." Xiaoxue looked at the two of them and a bitter smile appeared on her lips. "My ancestors were renowned masters of lightness skills in the martial arts world. Tired of the fighting and killing in the martial arts world, they brought us to Datian Village and have lived a pastoral life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset ever since."
"I tested you before. You clearly don't have internal energy, so how can you use lightness skills?" Li Tianyi was very puzzled.
"Who said that lightness skill requires internal energy to activate?" Xiaoxue tilted her head and stared wide-eyed.
Li Tianyi was startled and smiled wryly, "It seems I'm ignorant."
"Now it's my turn to ask you questions." Xiaoxue's feet moved at high speed, and her body gradually became blurry. "And who are you people?"
"Outsider." Fang Xin.
“I could tell from your attire.”
Xiao Xue moved around the area like a ghost, so fast that even Li Tianyi's eyes couldn't keep up. He exclaimed, "What amazing lightness skill!"
"Hehe!" Xiaoxue stopped, her face full of pride. "Of course, this is the famous 'Ghost Shadow Step' that is known throughout the country. You can count the number of people who have been lucky enough to see it on your fingers."
"This is truly eye-opening! Absolutely eye-opening!" Fang Xin's eyes were already shining as he walked towards Xiao Xue. "Can I learn this?"
"No, no way." Xiaoxue suddenly thought of something, her pretty face flushed red, and her voice was barely audible, "Unless you marry me."
"Cough, cough!" Fang Xin was immediately embarrassed.
Li Tianyi walked over with a cheerful smile, nudged Fang Xin, and whispered, "Brother Xin, you're not getting any younger. It's rare that Xiaoxue has taken a liking to you, so just go for it!"
"Get lost." Fang Xin was both angry and amused.
The two of them were immediately extremely embarrassed.
“I think you two are a good match.” Li Tianyi nodded repeatedly.
Xiaoxue was so embarrassed that she lowered her head and stepped on the mud at her feet.
Fang Xin was surprisingly in sync with her.
"Hehe, these two are got something going." Li Tianyi slowly stepped back, keeping his feet down.
They quickly disappeared from their sight.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiaoxue suddenly raised her head and stared intently at Fang Xin, "Will you marry me?"
"This, this?" Fang Xin's mind was in turmoil.
"Am I not good enough for you?" Xiaoxue's eyes reddened as she sobbed, "I know you probably look down on me because I was kidnapped by bandits. I can tell you with certainty that I am still a virgin."
He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Look, the virginity mark is proof."
“That’s not what I meant.” Fang Xin sighed. “We are from two different worlds. We won’t be happy together. Xiaoxue, you are still young. You will meet a better man than me.”
"No, I want to marry you, whether you agree or not." Xiaoxue rushed forward and hugged him tightly. "From now on, I am your wife, until death do us part."
Fang Xin's hand was already on her arm, and he tried several times to pry it off, but in the end he refrained from doing so.
“My motherland is waiting for me to go back and protect it.” Fang Xin patted her arm. “In other words, I walk on the edge of hell every day. It would be too unfair for you to follow me.”
